GraceyandTroy · August 2014

Cycle Status:

QOTW: If fertility weren't an issue for you, and you could have conceived and delivered whenever you'd planned, how many kids would you have and how old would they be now? And heck, since we're playing imagination today, what would their genders and names be (if you don't mind sharing names).

GraceyandTroy · August 2014

Cycle Status: I think I'm 3 or 4 dpo. I got a +opk last week on Wed, but haven't had a clear, strong temp shift. I'm just waiting this cycle out so I can call the RE on cd1.

QOTW: I would probably have a 3.5 year old girl named Maggie and I also my 1.5 boy who I do have, and I would probably be about 3 mos pregnant again. We have discussed it and I think out newt top two boy names are Warren and Riker. And our top two girl names are Maggie and Lucy. But we had a boy name picked before I got pg with DS, then changed out minds, so I'm not sure what we'll end up with. But Maggie has been picked out since before we even got married, so I don't see that name changing.

annibes · August 2014

Status: before O, I'm pretty sure. I've been hiding from tracking lately to preserve my sanity.

QOTW: Well, we started trying for a second in August 2010. I got pregnant after 2 cycles for DS, so we'll give some wiggle room and say 3 months (since it is an "I wish" scenario). So that would be baby 2 in August/September 2011, a year to adjust, then try again for another August/September 2013 baby, so we would be deciding right now to either be done with 3 or go for four.

Holy crap I could have completed my family by now.

Life's a complete bitch.

lawmom747 · August 2014

Cycle Status: Hoping this week's bloodwork looks good and I get the green light for IVF at doctor appointment Sept. 2. Until then on BC.

QOTW: Our original plan was to have our kids before we turned 30. Not even close. If the FET last year did not end in miscarriage - we would be the proud parents of 2-3 month old twins. Names - no idea. But those twins would have completed our family.

Flamingemu · August 2014

Status: I met with the internal surgeon today. I have to talk to work and tell them what is up because I am told I will need 2 - 4 weeks off. Great. I am a consultant and am judged on the hours I work, so now I have to figure out if STD is a possibility or if I need to beg the mercy of my low hours - 80+ is not something I can recover from.

QOTW: I would have a 4-5 year old boy, my almost 2 DD, and prepping for #3. We started a couple years later than we wanted and now can't even start trying for #2. I am so emotional today...

bcw2009 · August 2014

Status: 9ish DPO not really motivated to keep track anymore.

QOTW: I would have my 5yo DS and if I could have hand picked...and almost 1yo DD by now too

Bananappeal145 · August 2014

CD 4, another natural cycle until I finish a month of Byetta

I'd have Laurel (almost 3) and I'd have an almost 2 year old girl. Maybe Hazel. Not completely decided on that one yet.

jen4ny · August 2014

CD 5- started clomid last night. IUI next week.

If we got pregnant right away I would have a 4-5 month old baby and we would be done.

sept14 · August 2014

Cycle status: 11 DPO

We got pregnant twice on our own. We have a 5 year old DS and miscarried a little boy (at 16 wks) who should be 2 years old now. I think I would probably be pregnant again now.-- maybe a little girl for our third. We'd probably be done at 3, although I had always thought 4.

designer303 · August 2014

Expecting AF this week and hoping the cysts are gone.

This is hard for me because ideally it would not have taken more than 2 years to get KU with our DS, but Im weird about how changing the past would affect your future so I will just start after we had him. Ideally our pregnancy from December would have stuck and I probably would have delivered what I hoped was going to be our baby girl a week or so ago and we would have named her Gabrielle Leigh.

pettycrocker · August 2014

Cycle Status: CD 10

QOTW: If fertility weren't an issue for you, and you could have conceived and delivered whenever you'd planned, how many kids would you have and how old would they be now? And heck, since we're playing imagination today, what would their genders and names be (if you don't mind sharing names).

We started NTNP back in Oct 11 so I guess if we had conceived that cycle, they would have been around a year apart, I always hope for a boy but I would have been happy either way because I'm sure DD would love a sister. Idk what the name would be. I would have likely been pregnant with #3 by now and getting ready to be done. That was the plan.

BookishMomma · August 2014

Status: CD9 of hormone therapy cycle. Currently benched until October.

QOTW: If I'd had no fertility issues and didn't miscarry on TFAS, I'd have a one-month old baby right now, in addition to DS (3), and we'd be done having kids.

bumpuser6119831 · August 2014

Status: on BCP waiting for our appointment on Friday

QOTW: we would have our 2 year old and if things had gone according to plan I bet the baby that miscarried would have been a boy and he would have been here in a month- his name would have been Colin Thomas

phishgirl29 · August 2014

Status: On BCP's waiting for my period. the NEXT cycle after the one coming up is our FET as I still have to recover from the hysteroscopy. Praying that these 24 day cycles continue!

QOTW: If all went to plan, I would have gotten pregnant at 29 (I was married when I was 26) and finished having my second at 32. Well I'm 33 now and it took IVF to have #1. If my son's twin would have survived we would be done, but we would love a girl named Annabelle, or a boy name Kyle to add to our family.

ScarletBegonia79 · August 2014

my DD is annabelle! i am on CD 5.

in an ideal world i would have a 3.5 and 1.5 YO and would be thinking about a third. now i have a 3.5 YO and am wondering how late is too late for a sibling, because if we are serious about IVF we need to start saving in order to be able to do it within a reasonable timeframe.

CD who fucking knows. i'm on BCPs for suppression and should start stimming next week!!!

QOTW: well fuck. i'd have 5 kids right now. no. that's not true. if i had actually had baby #1 i wouldn't have kellen and life would be unbearable without him. if i could pick... kellen would be his age now (2.5) and we would have a 6 month old boy (the loss we had last summer). right now we can't seem to have #2 so dreaming of #3 makes me certifiably crazy.

PGwithNo3 · August 2014

Status: I had my IUI today and now in the 2ww. I was benched for cysts last month so I am very happy to finally be here. I would keep my 4yo big twins and I would have a 2 mo boy if our first IUI for bBy #3 had worked. We would be deciding about #4.

Steph1673 · August 2014

CD7

DD is almost 3.5 and we have always NTNP. We got more serious about trying when she was around 18 months old, so ideally we would have had another who would be one now and starting to think about a third soon. I was DD to have a sister, but would also love to experience raising a son, so we are open to either, or hopefully both!

I'm going to assume that MC was a girl because i had a ridiculosly vivid dream that involved a huge pink ring that projected images of the virgin Mary the day before i found out i was pregnant.

Are you sure this was not an acid flashback?

sailorgal · August 2014

Cycle Status: CD10.....waiting til they say to trigger.

QOTW: If fertility weren't an issue for you, and you could have conceived and delivered whenever you'd planned, how many kids would you have and how old would they be now?

You know, I'm not really sure. I figure we'll take it one child at a time. Ideally I would have liked to have 2 by now...I like the idea of a slightly bigger age gap. I'd love 3 kids but financially, I think we'll be done at 2. I wanted a boy first (got him)....and then would love another boy and then a girl...but with only two, I don't mind either way if the second is a girl or a boy. No names in mind.

Frenchteachermama · August 2014

Cycle Status: I only have 4 follies growing strong and a bunch of smaller ones that most likely won't catch up in time. E2 is rising and I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that there are a few good eggs in me. One more monitoring appt tomorrow and egg retrieval should be Friday.

QOTW: I would like 3 children, don't care about the gender

bkam · August 2014

On cd17, should hopefully be ovulating soon. And then 2ww. We are leaving for a 10day trip on Friday so I'm sure that'll mess up the cycle.

I have a 4 yr old boy at home. I would love to have a girl. He asked for a baby sister for his 4th bday and it broke my heart. Hopefully we can make that happen for his 5th bday.

STL34 · August 2014

Cycle Status: 7 dpo on this no chance natural cycle. 1 week and 2 days until my new opinion consult!

QOTW: I would assume we would have a 5 year old a 2-3 year old and I would be pregnant with number 3. I don't really have a preference in sex except that now that I have my daughter I wouldn't give her up or change her for anything. I wonder if I had a 5 year old would she have been my daughter or would my 2-3 year old be my daughter (who is currently a few months older than 2). Since we do have fertility issues, we really want to have a second but we won't try for a third at this point. We have spent too much money on fertility treatments and we are getting too old!

SassFrass · August 2014

Cd 15. Unsure of O date, but I had some blood tinged ewcm last night.

Ideally, we would have concieved our first month trying and would of had a 3 year old boy in addition to dd who is 5. Then we would have the twins we lost in October, Jacob and Jaxon, they would now be about 2 months old.... hopefully we will eventually have at least two more, a boy and a girl... Zaiden Elijah and Aubrey Faith will be their names

efhoping2010 · August 2014

Cycle Status: No updates from me just hoping September works for me to go for my ODWU for IVF #4.

QOTW: We had planned for zero contraception after marriage.

So since I BF our twins for 2 years, maybe I could have become pregnant every three years or so?

So two maybe three children more by now?

We miscarried twins during our FET in 2012, they would have been 19 months now, I always felt they were boys.

I miscarried early with 3 embryos last April they would have been 8 or 9 months old now.

I always think of those embryos we lost and wonder what we they would have become?
